Notes
- To clean Asparagus
- Under cool water rinse the asparagus spears in order to remove any dirt. Sometimes really thick asparagus will have a tough outer skin. It can be removed (if you want) with a vegetable peeler.
- Then snap off the bottom (an inch or so should be enough) by using your fingers, the stem will break naturally where the tough woody ends and the tender stem begins. Dry the spears by gently towel drying. Your spears are now ready for using in a recipe either leaving them whole or cut up.
- If you’ve bought pure garlic powder then it’s pretty easy to substitute it for fresh cloves. One clove of garlic equals about 1/8th of a teaspoon of pure garlic powder.
- Fresh asparagus should be kept refrigerated until cooking time. To help raw asparagus last longer, wrap the bottom of the stalks in a damp paper towel, then refrigerate in an unsealed plastic bag. It should keep for 3-4 days in the fridge.
- Any leftovers should be stored in an airtight container and refrigerated. It will keep for up to 2-3 days in the fridge. It can also be frozen when completely cooled in a freezer bag or container. It will keep for 2-3 months in the freezer.
